Definitions
- the invention relates to a capsule according to the introductory portion of claim 1.
- the invention also relates to a system according to the introductory portion of claim 10 and to the use of such a capsule.
- Such a capsule, system and use are known from EP-B-1 700 548 .
- the capsule is provided with a sealing member having the shape of a step, i.e. a sudden increase of the diameter of the side wall of the capsule, and the enclosing member of this known system has a sealing surface acting on the sealing member to provide deflection of the sealing member, the sealing surface being inclined so that the deflection of the sealing member is an inwards and downwards deformation of the step.
- the enclosing member comprises a capsule holder and a manually operated or an automatic mechanism for relative displacement of the enclosing member and the capsule holder.
- the manually operated or automatic mechanism applies a force on the sealing member of the capsule when the enclosing member closes on the capsule holder. This force should ensure the fluid tight seal between the enclosing member and the capsule. Because the manually operated or automatic mechanism is arranged to be moved relative to the base, the sealing capabilities of the system can depend on the pressure of the fluid injected by the fluid injection means. If the pressure of the fluid increases, the force between the sealing member of the capsule and the free end of the enclosing member increases too and thereby the force between the sealing member of the capsule and the free end of the enclosing member increases also. Such a system is described further on.
- the sealing member of the capsule must be arranged such that upon reaching the maximum fluid pressure in the enclosing member the sealing member should still provide a fluid sealing contact between the enclosing member and the capsule.
- the sealing member must also be arranged such that prior to, or at the start of, brewing when the pressure of the fluid in the enclosing member outside the capsule is relatively low, the sealing member also provides a fluid sealing contact between the enclosing member and the capsule. If at the start of brewing, there would not exist a fluid sealing contact between the capsule and the enclosing member, leakage will occur.
- this increased fluid pressure outside the capsule also provides an increased fluid pressure inside the capsule which is essential if the capsule is provided with a cover which is arranged to tear open on relief members of the capsule holder (also called an extraction plate) of the beverage preparation device under the influence of fluid pressure in the capsule.
- WO 2014/184653 A1 and WO2014/118812 A1 disclose capsules with a sealing member. It follows from the above that the sealing member is a member which is very critical in design. It should be able to provide a fluid sealing contact between the enclosing member and the capsule at a relatively low fluid pressure if only a relatively small force is applied on the sealing member by means of the free end of the enclosing member but it should also provide a fluid sealing contact at a much higher fluid pressure in the enclosing member outside the capsule if a higher force is applied by means of the free end of the enclosing member to the sealing member of the capsule.
- the sealing member In particular when the free contact end of the enclosing member is provided with radially extending open grooves which act as air inlet passage once the force between the enclosing member and the capsule holder is released so that it is easier for a user to take out the capsule, the sealing member must also be able to 'close' the radially extending open grooves to provide an effective seal.
- the invention has also as an object to provide an alternative system for preparing a potable beverage from a capsule and to provide an alternative use of a capsule in a beverage preparation device.
- the bearing encloses at least a portion of the free contact end of the annular element if the capsule is positioned in the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device and the enclosing member is closed by means of a closing member of the beverage preparation device a satisfactory sealing can be obtained.
- a bearing can be relatively easy to manufacture.
- the capsule can provide a satisfactory sealing with the free contact end provided with radially extending open grooves. Because upon closing of the enclosing member the bearing is at least partly folded over the free contact end of the annular element an excellent sealing engagement between capsule and enclosing member is obtained.
- a fluid sealing contact means that 0-6%, preferably 0-4%, more preferably 0-2.5% of the total fluid supplied to the enclosing member for preparing the beverage may leak away due to leakage between the free contact end and the sealing member of the capsule.
- the invention is in particular advantageous when, in an embodiment of a capsule, the capsule is filled with 5-20 grams, preferably 5-10 grams, more preferably 5-7 grams of an extractable product, such as roasted and ground coffee.
- the outer diameter of the outwardly extending flange of the capsule is larger than the diameter of the bottom of the capsule.
- the outer diameter of the outwardly extending flange is approximately 37.1 mm and the diameter of the bottom of the capsule is about 23.3 mm.
- the invention is in particular advantageous when in an embodiment of a capsule the thickness of the aluminum capsule body is 20 to 120 micrometer, preferably 100 micrometer.
- the invention is in particular advantageous when in an embodiment of a capsule the thickness of the aluminum cover is 15 to 65 micrometer, preferably 30-45 micrometer and more preferably 39 micrometer.
- the wall thickness of the aluminum cover is smaller than the wall thickness of the aluminum capsule body.
- the aluminum cover is arranged to tear open on a closing member of the beverage preparation device, such as an extraction plate of the beverage preparation device under the influence of fluid pressure in the capsule.
- the side wall of the aluminum capsule body has a free end opposite the bottom, the outwardly extending flange extending from said free end of the side wall in a direction at least substantially transverse to the central capsule body axis.
- the outwardly extending flange comprises a curled outer edge, which is beneficial in obtaining for a satisfactory sealing with the free contact end provided with radially extending open grooves.
- the radius about the central capsule body axis of an inner edge of the curled outer edge of the outwardly extending flange is preferably at least 32 mm, so that clearance from the annular end surface of the enclosure member is ensured. It is then preferred that the sealing member is positioned between the free end of the side wall of the aluminum capsule body and an inner edge of the curled outer edge of the outwardly extending flange to obtain a still further satisfactory sealing.
- the outwardly extending flange has a largest radial cross-sectional dimension of about 1.2 millimeter.
- the invention is in particular beneficial for capsules of which the inner diameter of the free end of the side wall of the aluminum capsule body is about 29.5 mm.
- the distance between the free end of the side wall of the aluminum capsule body and an outermost edge of the outwardly extending flange can be about 3.8 millimeter.
- the preferred height of the aluminum capsule body is about 28.4 mm.
- the aluminum capsule body is truncated, wherein preferably the side wall of the aluminum capsule body encloses an angle with a line transverse to the central capsule body axis of about 97.5°.

It is preferred that the bottom of the aluminum capsule body is truncated, preferably having a bottom height of about 4.0 mm and that the bottom further has a generally flat central portion opposite the cover having a diameter of about 8.3 mm.
- the height of the sealing member portion to be contacted first by the free end of the enclosure member when the enclosure member is closed is at least about 0.1 mm, more preferably at least 0.2 mm and most preferably at least 0.8 mm and at most 3 mm, more preferably at most 2 mm and most preferably at most 1.2 mm.
- the capsule comprises an inner surface, and wherein on the inner surface of at least the side wall of the capsule an inner coating is provided.
- an inner coating is provided on the inner surface of at least the side wall of the capsule.
- the inner coating facilitates the deep drawing process.
- the aluminum cover of the capsule is attached to the outwardly extending flange by means of a sealing lacquer it is then in particular advantageous when said inner coating being composed of the same material as the sealing lacquer.
- the sealing member is free from an inner coating in order to prevent crumbling off of the inner coating from the sealing member.
- the capsule comprises an outer surface, wherein on the outer surface of the capsule a color lacquer is provided.
- a color lacquer is provided on the outer surface of the capsule.
- an outer coating is provided on an outer surface of the color lacquer.
- the sealing member is free from a color lacquer (and consequently the outer coating) in order to prevent crumbling off of the color lacquer/outer coating from the sealing member.
- the capsule according to the invention is easy to manufacture, because the bearing enclosing at least a portion of the free contact end of the annular element is at least partly formed by the sealing member.
- the distance between the two projections is such that the free contact end of the annular element is contacted by the two projections if the capsule is positioned in the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device and the enclosing member is closed by means of a closing member of the beverage preparation device.
- the two spaced projections and the plateau can be arranged such that the free contact end of the annular element is contacted by the plateau if the capsule is positioned in the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device and the enclosing member is closed by means of a closing member of the beverage preparation device.
- At least one projection comprises projection side wall which is inclined with regard to the outwardly extending flange of the aluminum capsule body.
- the plateau is substantially flat or can comprise a curved portion, preferably adapted to the shape of the free contact end of the annular element.
- the bearing encloses at least a portion of the free contact end of the annular element if the capsule is positioned in the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device and the enclosing member is closed by means of a closing member of the beverage preparation device a satisfactory sealing can be obtained .
- Such a bearing can be relatively easy to manufacture.
- the capsule provides a satisfactory sealing with the free contact end provided with the radially extending open grooves.
- the invention is particularly suitable in a system according to the invention wherein, in use, the maximum fluid pressure in the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device is in the range of 6-20 bar, preferably between 12 and 18 bar. Even at this high pressures a satisfactory seal between capsule and beverage preparation device can be obtained.
- the system is arranged such that, in use, during brewing, a free end of the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device exerts a force F2 on the sealing member of the capsule to provide a fluid sealing contact between the outwardly extending flange of the capsule and the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device, wherein F2 is in the range of 500-1500 N preferably in the range of 750-1250 N when the fluid pressure P2 in the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device outside the capsule is in the range of 6-20 bar, preferably between 12 and 18 bar.
- the system is arranged such that, in use, prior to or at the start of brewing, a free end of the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device exerts a force F1 on the sealing member of the capsule to provide a fluid sealing contact between the outwardly extending flange of the capsule and the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device, wherein F1 is in the range of 30-150 N preferably in the range of 40-150 N, more preferably 50-100 N, when the fluid pressure P1 in the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device outside the capsule is in the range of 0.1-4 bar, preferably between 0.1-1 bar.

- the invention is in particular suitable when applied to an embodiment of a system according to the invention in which during use when the closing member of the beverage preparation device closes the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device at least the free contact end of the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device can move relative to the closing member of the beverage preparation device under the effect of the pressure of the fluid in the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device towards the closing member of the beverage preparation device for applying the maximum force between the flange of the capsule and the free end of the enclosing member of the beverage preparation device.
- the enclosing member may comprise a first part and a second part wherein the second part comprises the free contact end of the enclosing member wherein the second part can move relative to the first part between a first and second position.
- the second part can move from the first positon towards the second position in the direction of the closing member under the influence of fluid pressure in the enclosing member.
- the force F1 as discussed above may be reached if the second part is in the first position with a fluid pressure P1.
- the force F2 as discussed above may be reached if the second part is moved towards the second position under the influence of the fluid pressure P2 in the enclosing member.
- Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation, in cross sectional view, of an embodiment of a system 1 for preparing a potable beverage from a capsule using a fluid supplied under pressure into the capsule.
- the system 1 comprises a capsule 2, and a beverage preparation device 4.
- the device 4 comprises enclosing member 6 for holding the capsule 2.
- the device 4 further comprises a closing member, such as an extraction plate, 8 for supporting the capsule 2.
- a gap is drawn between the capsule 2, the enclosing member 6 and the extraction plate 8 for clarity. It will be appreciated that, in use, the capsule 2 may lie in contact with the enclosing member 6 and the extraction plate member 8.
- the enclosing member 6 has a shape complementary to the shape of the capsule 2.
- the apparatus 4 further comprises a fluid injection means 10 for supplying an amount of a fluid, such as water, under a pressure in the range of 6-20 bar, preferably between 12 and 18 bar, to the exchangeable capsule 2.
- the exchangeable capsule 2 comprises an aluminum capsule body 12 having a central capsule body axis 12A and an aluminum cover 14.
- the meaning of 'aluminum' is understood to also include aluminum alloy.
- the aluminum capsule body 12 comprises a side wall 16, a bottom 18 closing the side wall 16 at a first end, and a outwardly extending flange 20 extending outwardly of the circumferential wall 16 at a second end opposite the bottom 18.
- the side wall 16, the bottom 18 and the cover 14 enclose an inner space 22 comprising a substance for the preparation of a potable beverage by extracting and/or dissolving the substance.
- the substance is 5-20 grams, preferably 5-10 grams, more preferably 5-7 grams of roasted and ground coffee for the preparation of a single beverage.
- the capsule is initially sealed, i.e. is hermetically closed prior to use.
- the system 1 of Fig. 1 comprises bottom piercing means 24 for piercing the bottom 18 of the capsule 2 for creating at least one entrance opening 25 in the bottom 18 for supplying the fluid to the extractable product through the entrance opening 25.
